Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Trying to write it down
All the stories of my life
That are repeating when I'm trying to sleep
Some of them cut so deep
[Verse 2]
And sometimes I forget
What I worried about as a child
How you would interpret something
You're leading me through life
[PreChorus]
Trying
To face it
That I just lost you there
And I'm trying
To place it
That this is how it goes
[Chorus]
I needed you in my life
But I guess I learned to live without
And when I see you
It opens that cut
From when I was nine years old
Standing on my driveway
Waving
'Cause I saw you there
You were living
On the same street here
And I won't forget
How you looked away
And never waved back
Guess I learned it the hard way
[Verse 3]
Now I'm writing this story down
When you drove out of this town
You left it all behind
The family bond's gone now
[PreChorus]
Trying
To place it
That I just lost you there
And I'm trying
To face it
That this is how it goes
[Chorus]
I needed you in my life
But I guess I learned to live without
And when I see you
It opens that cut
From when I was nine years old
Standing on my driveway
Waving
'Cause I saw you there
You were driving
Towards me
And I won't forget
How you looked away
With an ice-cold face
Guess I learned it the hard way
Guess I learned it the hard way
